I am about to take delivery of my 2015 Q5 3.0 TDI. From this thread it sounds like it does not have LED interior lighting... Correct? But a kit can purchased to upgrade them, correct?

If I were you, I would wait to see it in person , because My 2015 SQ5 didn't come with LED interior lighting and a guy at the job, hist 2015 S4 comes with LED lighting... so I would wait.

How hard is it to install the fog lights?

On a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being super difficult:

Q5 = 1

SQ5 = 2 (Passenger's side is a 1 and Driver's side is a 2)

Agree with Dustin. Super easy. Hard part is getting the grills out, which is just an exercise in pulling harder than you think you should and chewing up your fingers a bit if you don't have the puller or an equivalent implement. After that the bulbs are about as hard as changing an actual light bulb.

I did my fog lights and the hard part is to have a firm grab on the grill (closer to the center of the car) and pull slowly with extra force. Once it is out it is very easy even for a guy like me that is not savvy at all. I also bought the led interior kit (still waiting for them) so I don't know how hard that could be yet...let you know when I am thru with that.

Interested in seeing pics of the LED kit installed!

Same here...I want to get an LED kit, but there's SO many out there, I'm not sure which one to get. I want QUALITY over price...and I want an LED that's NOT blue-white light...probably a 4500-5000K area.

I didn't even need to pull the grills out on the 3.2. The driver's side was easily accessible from under the hood and the passenger side can be reached by turning the wheels to the left and removing 3 screws from the liner in the wheel well.
